Green font needed? Lol

I thought the popcorn eating dude would have gave it away.

I can never tell internet sarcasm. My meter is broken. Little popcorn dude looked like somebody who was waiting to hear what the homers had to say. Like a milder version of this cat: :smiley-cough:
 
Did you not see the way he shit all over Dallas? They traded THREE useful players (Brandan Wright, Jameer Nelson and Jae Crowder) and two draft picks (a 1st and a 2nd) for that piece of shit and he pretty much single handedly destroyed their season. He was so disrupted, they suspended him and sent him home in the middle of a playoff series. Of course, they then let him walk for nothing and ended up giving up 3 players and 2 draft picks for 42 games of his pouting and antics.

No thanks. No way in hell do I want that ass hat anywhere near our young players.

First of all, he must be much cheaper now. Like, almost free I would imagine. And sec thing is (referring to "shit all over") our young players are on the road to
nowhere and they already don't look clean at all.
I just like the guy and I don't really like Rubio. Ricky could have great live in sunny Spain and I don't understand what he struggling in Minny for. He won't be any better.
Thing is, I don't like the idea of keepin two shot first guards in starting 5. I need proper PG to distribute the ball if our team has to be just 3poit shotin machine.

Have you actually watched Rondo play this year? He's playing even worse this year than he did in DAL. He's a whiny bitch whose game has deserted him.

And, I'm not sure what you mean by cheap, but he's making $14 million this year and $13.4 million next. So, we'd have to give up something to get him, but worse than that is the opportunity cost of taking on that shitty contract.

I repeat: no thanks!

I think these deals or something Similar would be good for the Blazers.

Portland Gets:

Robin Lopez
Doug McDermott

Chicago Gets:

Mason Plumlee
Meyers Leynard
Festus Ezeli

OR This Three way trade or something Similar. with a draft pick or something added in to Denver:

Portland Gets:

Tristan Thompson
Ken. Faried
Will Barton

Denver Gets:

Meyers Leynard
Noah Vonleh
Tim Quarterman
Draft Pick

Cleveland Gets:

Allen Crabbe

http://www.espn.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=h78f8q6
 
Stripping out Crabbe/Thompson from that proposal, you're essentially suggesting:

Portland Gets:
Ken. Faried
Will Barton

Denver Gets:
Meyers Leynard
Noah Vonleh
Tim Quarterman
Draft Pick

I don't see in what world that's even close to reasonable on Denver's end.
 
Its burning

I'll reserve my world is ending rant for AFTER guys like Nurkic get traded elsewhere. Portland isn't the only team that hasn't made any moves, and I wouldn't expect anything until deadline day. I don't understand why pretty much every team waits until then, but it is what it is.

Btw my contempt for Neil is growing by the day, so I have a lot of things I want to get off my chest about him, but I will wait until after the deadline to do it lol.
 
No, seriously, you want to get back Barton, cos Afflalo didn't work out, so you give them Vonleh, so you can get him back in two years?
 
I think Ezeli may come back this year, and that's is why Portland didn't apply for the exception on the 15th. Is it possible instead of the surgery, he opted for some other procedure, that would get him back quicker? And that is where he disappeared to before the road trip. Everyone was wishing him well with the procedure and not issuing goodbyes? Maybe his agent was messing with us in that tweet, and the "...not for surgery" was him essentially saying he is not getting the surgery, but rather a different procedure to get back sooner...
 
Ezeli wont play for Portland. He will be heavily shopped as cap savings for next year.
 
He doesn't need to be shopped for cap savings. His contract is unguaranteed next year.
...... i know. I am saying we are the ones shopping him to other teams because of the cap savings he would give other teams due to his unguaranteed deal.
 
Crabbe and picks for ibaka? Maybe we can get them to throw in hezonja because we will need to replace Crabbes shooting. Not a fan of hezonja really but it's worth a look.
 
Ibaka would be a good pick up if we could convince him to stay, he fits in Dame's timeline.
